After yesterday's diversion into the strange and disturbing thoughts rattling round in Spalding's head, normal service is resumed with today's book:

Space Junque by LK Rigel - Sci-fi

Enjoy!

Very cool service you offer, Nick.

BTW, just purchased your book on Kindle. Writing an entire book in one sitting? Makes NaNoWriMo seem like a picnic!

I don't recommend trying it - for the sake of your sanity as well as your arse

Thanks very much for buying the book. Much appreciated!

Non fiction's been a bit of a rarity on Spalding's Racket - just my own wee bit of nonsense before now - but happily Jim Chambers has come along and provided a new bit of non fiction reading for everyone:

Recollections: A Baby Boomer's Memories of the Fabulous Fifties is available now and posted on the blog

Today's book on The Racket is Kevin Domenic's Key To The Stars, the first part in his fantasy epic The Fourth Dimension.

Secondary Targets by Sandra Edwards - Mystery is today's book.

On another topic, somebody called me 'Spaldingo' today - possibly the worst nickname I've ever had.

So would I..
